Staying Alive Cautiously in the Celestial Realm and Becoming the Strongest

Hongmeng Purple Qi, legend tells, is the purple aura that came into being when the heavens and earth first parted and the Great Sun shone forth.

It can refine the body and soul, enhance one's Root Bone aptitude, extend life, and increase Cultivation Level, possessing various incredible uses and ranking among the top ten of all heavenly treasures.

Of course, the Hongmeng Purple Qi that Long River True Person bestowed upon Wang Chen wasn't truly that legendary substance.

It's a treasure that even a Tribulation-Transcending Taoist Ancestor would covet!

What Wang Chen received was merely a pseudo-Hongmeng Purple Qi refined with Great Sun Purple Qi. Its effects couldn't compare to the authentic Hongmeng Purple Qi, but it was still immensely precious.

This strand of Hongmeng Purple Qi was enough to sustain Wang Chen's cultivation for three years!

Moreover, its cultivation effects far surpassed those of the Great Sun Purple Qi.

The reason Long River True Person gave Hongmeng Purple Qi to Wang Chen was that most minor worlds cannot accommodate the Great Sun Purple Qi, which is not conducive to the cultivation of cultivators in the Purple Mansion stage.

The Yin Nether Realm chosen by Wang Chen had an even harsher cultivation environment. With this strand of Hongmeng Purple Qi, Wang Chen's daily cultivation wouldn't fall behind.

Additionally, this pseudo-version of the Hongmeng Purple Qi was of little use to a Golden Core True Person, which is why he received such a valuable reward.

In some sense, this was the good karma Wang Chen had sown by lending a hand to Meng Fei.

After returning to Wanling City, Wang Chen organized his Sumeru Ring, allocating a batch of Spirit Stones, Pills, and Talismans to Xu Xinlan to serve as the future cultivation resources for Meng Fei's other younger disciples.

If you're going to do a favor, you have to do it thoroughly and properly, not start strong and end weak.

Given Meng Fei's talent and his entry under Long River True Person's mentorship, his prospects were bound to soar limitlessly.

As for those children without high talent or any talent at all, as long as one is willing to invest and cultivate them earnestly, they might also achieve something in their cultivation in the future and become Xu Xinlan's reliable supports.

From any point of view, Wang Chen's current investment was entirely worthwhile.

And when Xu Xinlan found out Wang Chen was leaving again, even with endless reluctance in her heart, she could only transform it into tender, soul-consuming passion, being extremely affectionate with him.

If love endures for long, what then if we do not meet every dawn and dusk!

Thinking of the verse about parting, Wang Chen quietly cut off the entangling affections and once again embarked on his own journey.

Descending into the Yin Nether.

Within the minor worlds under the control of the West Sea Sect, the Yin Nether Realm is undoubtedly a very special one.

Most regions of this world are shrouded in fog and darkness, with only the areas illuminated by the nether moon permitting normal sight. The space is heavy with Yin Qi, giving rise to a multitude of Evil Spirits and devilish beings.

For a Taoist Sect cultivator, the Yin Nether Realm is undoubtedly an uncomfortable place.

There's also Spiritual Energy here, but it's too heavily tinged with yin, rendering it unsuitable for direct absorption. It can only be assimilated by using an Array for transformation.

Moreover, the power of Taoist Sect Spells tends to be diminished in the Yin Nether Realm.

However, many items produced in the Yin Nether Realm are highly sought after by the Immortal Gates.

Ores, Spiritual Materials, herbs...

And the Yin Qi Pearls dropped by Evil Spirits and spirit monsters!

Therefore, despite the difficulties of pioneering work, the West Sea Sect continually sends cultivators to the Yin Nether Realm to break new ground and vigorously plunder the resources and wealth of this world.

Wang Chen entered the Yin Nether Realm through the Sect's grand Array.

It must be said that it was the worst teleportation experience he'd ever had.

The entire process was tumultuous, and every inch of his muscles felt like they were being torn apart, while his Sea of Consciousness seemed to have a large stick plunged into it, stirring wildly, causing his consciousness to become extremely chaotic.

To make matters worse, the process was drawn out, nearly driving one to the brink of madness.

When the teleportation ended, just as Wang Chen's consciousness began to recover, he heard retching sounds nearby.

He was not the only West Sea Sect disciple descending into the Yin Nether Realm.

There were thirty-seven others accompanying him!

"Don't throw up here,"

At that moment, a teasing voice rose in everyone's ears, "Otherwise, you'll have to clean it up yourself."

Upon hearing this voice, a strange feeling welled up in Wang Chen's heart.

He followed the direction of the voice and saw a young cultivator standing in front of the array, saying with a grin, "Fellow sect members, welcome to the Yin Nether Realm!"

Wang Chen glanced at him, then quickly took in his surroundings.

He found himself in the center of a grand hall.

The patterns on the floor were still emitting a faint glow, the aura of mana rapidly dissipating.

Around him, eight massive coiled dragon stone pillars supported the lofty dome, while luminous stone lamps hung on the walls illuminated the space in intricate detail.

The disciples who had come with Wang Chen were no ordinary folks; they quickly adjusted and regained composure.

"All right,"
Stay tuned with My Virtual Library Empire

The young cultivator clapped his hands and said, "Let me introduce myself first. I am Bai Wuchang, the induction officer of the Yin Nether Realm. You can call me Brother Bai."

One of the sect members couldn't help but ask, "Brother Bai, where are we now?"

"The Yin Nether Realm, Weifa City, Guardian Town Hall!"

Bai Wuchang answered, "You are the twenty-third group of sect members I am in charge of guiding. Please follow me."

So, including Wang Chen, everyone followed this induction officer and left the so-called Guardian Town Hall.

Stepping out of the hall's doors, the sight before them made many take a sharp intake of cold air.

Everyone knew before coming that the environment of the Yin Nether Realm was harsh and unsuitable for cultivators.

They had mentally prepared themselves.

But only by personally experiencing it did they realize they had vastly underestimated it.

Inside the hall and out, it was like two different worlds.

Inside, they hardly felt anything; at most, the spiritual energy was not very abundant.

But once they went out, they realized the place they had just left was paradise!

Outside, the world was filled with a bitter chill of Yin Qi, making people feel as though they had plunged into an ice cave in an instant, chilling them from head to toe, causing their body hair to stand on end.

Above the vault of heaven, a silver-grey moon hung high, casting a bleak and silent glow.

Around the Guardian Town Hall were many buildings, most constructed with lead-grey or black-grey materials, resembling a dark stone forest, with specks of light sprinkled throughout.

Without the bustle of a city or the boiling vitality of people, this place felt more like Hell than the realm of the living!

The Yin Qi was bone-chilling!

Some disciples couldn't bear it and immediately stimulated their mana to protect their bodies, which then restored their normal complexion.

"It's actually good inside the city,"

Bai Wuchang smirked slightly, "Once you go into the wilderness, you'll know what's really fierce."

He didn't explain much further and led everyone to a side hall nearby.

"I won't say too much, you all know your tasks. I will now assign your territories and supplies,"

Bai Wuchang said bluntly, "You can stay in Weifa City for three days to familiarize yourselves with the environment. After three days, you must go to your respective assigned territories, otherwise you will be dealt with according to sect rules!"

Wang Chen's fellow sect members immediately became tense.
